    Sorry about the video capture being so glitchy at points. My first time doing something like this and clearly it didn't go well. I have a lot to learn.

    For me it's the facial expressions. There are so many subtleties that it's hard to believe there's no mocap baseline. They serve the storytelling as much as the dialogue or the action.

    When I subbed to your channel, I never in a million years thought you'd ever review a TV show, let alone a show that ended up being what I consider one of the best if not THE best animated series of all time. What I'm trying to say is I'm glad I stayed subbed.

    I ended up watching Arcane twice, because I kept getting distracted from the story by the beautiful art. Then I would get distracted from the art by the awesome story. It truly is a masterpiece.

    That thing about color, to separate timelines and character arcs, is very smart. That's actually one of the issues I have with The Witcher S1. It gets confusing to remember whose story your following.

    I play league and their art team has always produced some of the best content imo, from their music videos (which i highly recommend watching) to their animated trailers and their character designs/skins. This show did an amazing job building the world of their game and lore for their characters and i loved your review! I would love to see more content like this as well as maybe some scene breakdowns(analyzing compositions, color, gesture, etc)?

    Absolutely love this artist animation review. If you find out what software was used for this please let us know. I love how the brush strokes stayed static as the characters moved. It makes me want to do this so bad! Thanks so much for this new type of review!

    just finished the season and this was so enjoyable to watch. arcane seriously blew my mind I can't even. Thing about it is that, I got so entranced that I forget it's animation sometimes, until a shot of something more illustrative is shown and I'm just like WOW

    I would love to hear you talk move about animated tv shows and movies or even comics or manga. In the end of the day products like tablets and computers are just tools to help us be creative so hearing you talk about these things is very refreshing.

    The most interesting technical thing is just how the series creators make you FORGET you're watching animation. Within a minute of the start of the brilliant intro sequence, I was watching a story. NOT animation. When the opening credits started, I had to pause it for a minute to wrap my head around what I was seeing. This is a sea change for animation. Literally one of the best series I have ever watched, (live OR animation) and I am not a spring chicken, so that's saying a lot. By the end of the first three episodes, I was in full worship mode. 😀

    seams like a nice video, but there are a lot of glitches in it that makes it kinda annoying to watch.

    This topic is the kind of stuff that makes you wanna keep watching you and keep you on my subscription list.

    I honestly believe the scene where Viktor is running down the pier with his new leg has some of the best camerawork I've ever seen in animation. I also couldn't agree with the adult themes comment more, it's so boring when people just shove in random "mature" stuff because it's for older audiences, but Arcane handles the darker themes so well and never even comes close to this. I've just finished it but I could already watch the whole thing again.

    You should do more of this. You’re bringing fresh style to the channel. It’s good to diversify by bringing something new but still about drawing and art. I love it.

    I love what u said about the concept art / painting look - I thought the exact same thing ! It reminded me of digital fan art of the game in the best way
